It's only been a month!!

WOW! How quickly a month can slip on by. I can't believe we haven't updated the blog in that long. We have been super busy and I just haven't had the time to sit down at the computer. But here is a house update....

Our roof has been installed...well the second story has. They cant do the 1st story until after the stucco goes on and people are done walking on the roof. But we REALLY like the way the roof looks. It has very clean lines and doesn't really stand out which is exactly what we wanted.



The pool tile is finally installed. It took a few weeks for them to do all of the work. It was much more labor intensive than we imagined. But the work was so worth it. It looks amazing!!! I was a little worried that the slide may stand out a little too much since it is so big but they did a great job and when the landscaping is in it is not going to be a focal point at all. So far everyone that come through the house just stops and stares at the pool and cant wait to be invited to try it out.







They have started installing our windows and sliding glass doors. They are HUGE and very heavy!! But once again we are really excited about how they have changed the overall look of the house.

Finally, the plumber, HVAC guys and soon the electrician have started putting together the "brains" of the house. When you walk in you see lots of pipes, air vents and electrical wires hanging around. I am not really that interested in this stage so I am not so addictive to photographing it. But I will try and do a better job.





We have been busy with making quick trips up to the lot to try and solve the problems that come up on a daily bases. It has been a little frustrating lately but I have to keep reminding myself about how worth it it is going to be in the end.

Other than that this heat is horrible, the smoke is making the days drag on because Chris and I wont go for our nightly walks and I am ready for Fall. I hope this post finds everyone doing well. I promise to get back into the blogging world.
